Forever Nigella #1 Round Up and Winners

A few days later than planned and I’m delighted to share with you the very first round up of Forever Nigella: Seasonal Sensations.

I seriously hadn’t bargained to receive so many entries and had a few hiccups emailing entries over to Lorraine at Not Quite Nigella in Australia. (Tsk! Those of you who sent in billboard sized multi mega byte picture files were indeed cursed but will remain nameless!) Then she and I were each away for a couple of days hence it’s taken until now – but worth the wait I hope you’ll agree. There are about 4-5 of you whom I’ve not left comments for yet – don’t despair, I have read all the posts and will leave comments as soon as I can.

For next month’s Forever Nigella #2 Seduced by Chocolate round up I will have a better system in place!

Don’t forget you still have until end of Sunday 16 February to send in your wonderful blogged seductive Nigella chocolate recipes. Next month’s prize is a pair of Nigella Living Collection serving hands and the guest judge is Dom from Chocablog.

I barely dare hope for anything like as many entries as this first dizzy month but who knows how much you will all surprise me?! We have six entries already and counting…

Prizes!

1. Forever Nigella Queen of the month. Prize for whoever “exudes the most Nigella-ness”.

Lorraine at Not Quite Nigella looked at all the entries and she has chosen the … *drumroll please* … Golden Syrup Muffins in a jar by Peggy at Fake It ‘Til You Make It. Here’s what Lorraine had to say about this entry:

“It was creative, a sweet pudding, and it was a clever gifting idea as they last for ages and Nigella seems to love giving food gifts. In fact like Nigella’s recipes do, it made me want to go out and bake them instantly which I might do!”

I am dying to try this out too. Well done Peggy who wins a copy of Nigella “Kitchen”.

2. Bonus prize draw for all blogs who displayed the first Forever Nigella badge in a blog post (and emailed me to tell me… I’m not psychic you know…!)

The winner of the Nigella Living Collection Measuring Cups chosen at random from all 47 blogs known to have displayed the Forever Nigella badge is Claire at Things We Make. Well done Claire and I’ll be in touch with you by email to get your address.

First of all my heartiest congratulations to Peggy , am hoppn by to see her post :-))
